Title: Cats drinking from taps
Post by: Mark on May 01, 2009, 00:32:46 AM

I remember an old thread about this. I have a pic somewhere of Kylie drinking from the tap at OH's old house about 5 years ago. She has been good since we got the Drinkwell but went back to her old ways the other day  :Luv2:

My cats do exactly the same but upstairs in the bathroom :shocked:
My sisters cat does it too and they have to leave her a cupfull of water everyday on the side because she won't drink out of her bowl ;D

Trouble and Cassie prefer the fishpond. They have a water bowl, but far prefer the waterfalls. Fish flavoured perhaps? :rofl:

My cats have never drank from any of the taps - although it could only be the bathroom any way as they are not allowed up on the kitchen worktop.

Ollie bolts for the water dish though when I'm topping them up with fresh filtered water from the fridge.
